MotivationsSuppose that you need to print a string (e.g., "Welcome to Java!") a hundred times. It would be tedious to have to write the following statement a hundred times:

System.out.println("Welcome to Java!");

So, how do you solve this problem?

Problem: Repeat Addition Until Correct

Recall that Listing 3.1 AdditionQuiz.java gives a program that prompts the user to enter an answer for a question on addition of two single digits. Using a loop, you can now rewrite the program to let the user enter a new answer until it is correct.

IMPORTANT NOTE: If you cannot run the buttons, see www.cs.armstrong.edu/liang/javaslidenote.doc.

Problem: Guessing NumbersWrite a program that randomly generates an integer between 0 and 100, inclusive. The program prompts the user to enter a number continuously until the number matches the randomly generated number. For each user input, the program tells the user whether the input is too low or too high, so the user can choose the next input intelligently. Here is a sample run:

Problem: An Advanced Math Learning Tool

The Math subtraction learning tool program generates just one question for each run. You can use a loop to generate questions repeatedly. This example gives a program that generates five questions and reports the number of the correct answers after a student answers all five questions.

19

Ending a Loop with a Sentinel Value Often the number of times a loop is executed is not predetermined. You may use an input value to signify the end of the loop. Such a value is known as a sentinel value.

Write a program that reads and calculates the sum of an unspecified number of integers. The input 0 signifies the end of the input.

CautionDon’t use floating-point values for equality checking in a loop control. Since floating-point values are approximations for some values, using them could result in imprecise counter values and inaccurate results. Consider the following code for computing 1 + 0.9 + 0.8 + ... + 0.1:

double item = 1; double sum = 0;while (item != 0) { // No guarantee item will be 0

sum += item;item -= 0.1;

}System.out.println(sum);

NoteThe initial-action in a for loop can be a list of zero or more comma-separated expressions. The action-after-each-iteration in a for loop can be a list of zero or more comma-separated statements. Therefore, the following two forloops are correct. They are rarely used in practice, however.

for (int i = 1; i < 100; System.out.println(i++));

for (int i = 0, j = 0; (i + j < 10); i++, j++) {

// Do something

NoteIf the loop-continuation-condition in a for loop is omitted, it is implicitly true. Thus the statement given below in (a), which is an infinite loop, is correct. Nevertheless, it is better to use the equivalent loop in (b) to avoid confusion:

for ( ; ; ) { // Do something } (a)

Equivalent while (true) { // Do something }

(b)

35

CautionAdding a semicolon at the end of the for clause before the loop body is a common mistake, as shown below:

for (int i=0; i<10; i++);

{

System.out.println("i is " + i);

}

36

Caution, cont.Similarly, the following loop is also wrong:int i=0; while (i < 10);{

System.out.println("i is " + i);i++;

}In the case of the do loop, the following semicolon is needed to end the loop.int i=0; do {

System.out.println("i is " + i);i++;

} while (i<10);

Which Loop to Use?The three forms of loop statements, while, do-while, and for, are expressively equivalent; that is, you can write a loop in any of these three forms. For example, a while loop in (a) in the following figure can always be converted into the following for loop in (b):

A for loop in (a) in the following figure can generally be converted into the following while loop in (b) except in certain special cases (see Review Question 3.19 for one of them):

for (initial-action; loop-continuation-condition; action-after-each-iteration) { // Loop body; }

(a)

Equivalent

(b)

initial-action; while (loop-continuation-condition) { // Loop body; action-after-each-iteration; }

while (loop-continuation-condition) { // Loop body }

(a)

Equivalent

(b)

for ( ; loop-continuation-condition; ) { // Loop body }

38

RecommendationsUse the one that is most intuitive and comfortable for you. In general, a for loop may be used if the number of repetitions is known, as, for example, when you need to print a message 100 times. A while loop may be used if the number of repetitions is not known, as in the case of reading the numbers until the input is 0. A do-while loop can be used to replace a while loop if the loop body has to be executed before testing the continuation condition.

Minimizing Numerical Errors Numeric errors involving floating-point numbers are inevitable. This section discusses how to minimize such errors through an example.

Here is an example that sums a series that starts with 0.01 and ends with 1.0. The numbers in the series will increment by 0.01, as follows: 0.01 + 0.02 + 0.03 and so on.

Problem:Finding the Greatest Common Divisor

Problem: Write a program that prompts the user to enter two positive integers and finds their greatest common divisor.Solution: Suppose you enter two integers 4 and 2, their greatest common divisor is 2. Suppose you enter two integers 16 and 24, their greatest common divisor is 8. So, how do you find the greatest common divisor? Let the two input integers be n1 and n2. You know number 1 is a common divisor, but it may not be the greatest commons divisor. So you can check whether k (for k = 2, 3, 4, and so on) is a common divisor for n1 and n2, until k is greater than n1 or n2.

Case Study: Converting Decimals to Hexadecimals

Hexadecimals are often used in computer systems programming (see Appendix F for an introduction to number systems). How do you convert a decimal number to a hexadecimal number? To convert a decimal number d to a hexadecimal number is to find the hexadecimal digits hn, hn-1, hn-2, ... , h2, h1, and h0 such that

These hexadecimal digits can be found by successively dividing d by 16 until the quotient is 0. The remainders are h0, h1, h2, ... , hn-2, hn-1, and hn.

Problem: Checking PalindromeA string is a palindrome if it reads the same forward and backward. The words “mom,” “dad,” and “noon,” for instance, are all palindromes.The problem is to write a program that prompts the user to enter a string and reports whether the string is a palindrome. One solution is to check whether the first character in the string is the same as the last character. If so, check whether the second character is the same as the second-to-last character. This process continues until a mismatch is found or all the characters in the string are checked, except for the middle character if the string has an odd number of characters.

Problem: Displaying Prime NumbersProblem: Write a program that displays the first 50 prime numbers in five lines, each of which contains 10 numbers. An integer greater than 1 is prime if its only positive divisor is 1 or itself. For example, 2, 3, 5, and 7 are prime numbers, but 4, 6, 8, and 9 are not.

Solution: The problem can be broken into the following tasks:•For number = 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, ..., test whether the number is prime.•Determine whether a given number is prime.•Count the prime numbers.•Print each prime number, and print 10 numbers per line.
